Summary

This study tests a new way to quickly tell why someone is short of breath in the emergency room. It compares a skin sensor reading with a standard blood test to see if the difference (GapCO2) can identify fluid buildup in the lungs. About 45 adults will take part, and the goal is to help doctors make faster, more accurate decisions.
